Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let x represent the number of minutes of call made.
Let y represent the cost for x minutes of call.
If we plot y on the vertical axis and x on the horizontal axis, a straight line would be formed. The slope of the straight line would be
Slope, m = (10.86 - 5.91)/(10 - 5)
m = 4.95/5 = 0.99
The equation of the straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where
c = intercept
m = slope
To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 10, y = 10.86 and m = 0.99 into y = mx + c. It becomes
10.86 = 0.99 × 10 + c = 9.9 + c
c = 10.86 - 9.9
c = 0.96
The linear function becomes
y = 0.99x + 0.96
Therefore, for $12, the number of minutes would be
12 = 0.99x + 0.96
0.99x = 12 - 0.96
0.99x = 11.04
x = 11.04/0.99
x = 11.15 minutes
Hi!
To solve this inequality, we have to isolate x on one side. Whatever we do to the equation we have to do it on both sides.
1.30x + 5.20 ≤ 18.20
Subtract 5.20 from both sides.
1.30x + 5.20 - 5.20 ≤ 18.20 - 5.20
1.30x ≤ 13
Divide by 1.30 on both sides.
1.30x/1.30 ≤ 13/1.30
x ≤ 10

Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
140_x÷9=x
x=126
Parallel lines have the same slope.
To compare the slopes of two different lines, you have to get
both equations into the form of
y = 'm' x + (a number) .
In that form, the 'm' is the slope of the line.
Notice that it's the number next to the 'x' .
The equation given in the question is y = 3 - 2 x .
Right away, they've done something to confuse you.
You always expect the 'x' term to be right after the 'equals' sign,
but here, they put it at the end. The slope of this line is the -2 .
Go through the choices, one at a time.
Look for another one with a slope of -2 .
Remember, rearrange the equation to read ' y = everything else ',
and then the slope is the number next to the 'x'.
Choice #4: y = 4x - 2 . The slope is 4 . That's not it.
Choice #3: y = 3 - 4x . The slope is -4 . That's not it.
Choice #2). 2x + 4y = 1
Subtract 2x from each side: 4y = 1 - 2x
Divide each side by 4 : y = 1/4 - 1/2 x .
The slope is -1/2. That's not it.
Choice #1). 4x + 2y = 5
Subtract 4x from each side: 2y = 5 - 4x
Divide each side by 2 : y = 5/2 - 2 x .
The slope is -2 .
This one is it.
This one is parallel to y = 3 - 2x ,
because they have the same slope.
